This charming, classic log cabin with small windows is hidden between the forests and snow-capped mountains of Sjusjøen. It's just a short drive from Lillehammer, where you can go on adventures to one of the country's best cross-country skiing areas, when you're not enjoying the peace and quiet of the cabin. After both hiking and skiing, the sauna is a luxury for tired muscles.
The cabin is bright and friendly with wooden walls and large windows in the open-plan kitchen/living room, which at times offers an almost magical view of the mountain landscape. The kitchen is well-equipped and invites you to indulge in gastronomic delights, and you can enjoy your meals together around the large long table. Up in the loft, you'll find a lovely daybed that forms the setting for both Friday movies and den building for the family's little ones.
From the living room there is an open connection to the terrace, where you can enjoy the warming rays of the sun in both summer and winter as you sit down for a quiet moment with your morning coffee. Relax in the cabin's sauna or enjoy the dancing flames on the slate-covered patio by the fire pit with something hot in your cup. If you're lucky, you might even see the Northern Lights dancing in the sky on starry winter nights.
Here, in the heart of Sjusjøen, is the perfect place to stay if you enjoy both mountain hikes and skiing trips suitable for the whole family. With a wide variety of trails, there's something for everyone and the nearest nature experience is never far away. In the summer you can swim in Sjusjøvannet and in the winter there are open holes in the ice on Mesnavannet for winter swimmers. If you miss city life, Lillehammer is only 20 minutes away by car.
Ski in / ski out: Cross-country ski trails right outside the cabin.

For us, the cabin at Sjusjøen has been an investment in quality of life. Family and friends enjoy many good times together there, both inside and outside and in all seasons. Here we have every opportunity to live an active life outdoors, with many different activities - depending on which season we visit the cabin.
We like to go on ski trips to Pellestova or Ljøsheim, where we enjoy lunch on site, or we go slalom skiing at Sjusjøen or Hafjell. There are also many great hiking opportunities throughout the year. You can also go hiking in the area in the summer and enjoy the beautiful views. If we want a bit of city life, Lillehammer is only 15-20 minutes away by car. In the summer, there are also good swimming conditions in Sjusjøvannet, Eftastjernet or in Sør/Nord Mesna, which is also a must, and there are many great cycling and paddling opportunities. When we want to enjoy ourselves a little extra, we recommend a dinner at Låven Bar or at Restaurant "Hai" by Graaten. Good food and drink and a great atmosphere in both places.
